Tackling food waste

In Australia we waste over $10 billion on edible food each year. This is astounding and simply not acceptable when there is such a large portion of our population who are going hungry.

Woolworths has joined forces with OzHarvest to help tackle this issue and help reduce waste. OzHarvest will work with over 950 Woolworths stores in supplying charities with food that can’t be sold in stores.

Woolworths’ aim is to essentially reduce waste overall. The larger aim is to educate staff, consumers and suppliers on waste reduction so that the overall message is clear.
